Turkish rider sketch
Salve,
this one is reworking of an old sketch into a new image, this time he is going to be a Ottoman Turkish cavalryman or .. well, whether an akinci, delier or sipahi I do not know yet. Time period XVI century CE.
Nice one, I like it. The ball like thing on the lance would be rather at the end of it to prevent piercing too deep and be stuck in the opponent. Bow and arrow with quivers would be primary weapons also and should not be missing.
